OAR 411-054-0040 (1-2) Change of Condition and Monitoring (1) CHANGE OF CONDITION. These rules define a resident's change of condition as either short term or significant with the following meanings: (a) Short term change of condition means a change in the resident's health or functioning that is expected to resolve or be reversed with minimal intervention or is an established, predictable, cyclical pattern associated with a previously diagnosed condition. (b) Significant change of condition means a major deviation from the most recent evaluation that may affect multiple areas of functioning or health that is not expected to be short term and imposes significant risk to the resident.(c) If a resident experiences a significant change of condition that is a major deviation in the resident's health or functional abilities, the facility must evaluate the resident, refer to the facility nurse, document the change, and update the service plan as needed. (d) If a resident experiences a short-term change of condition that is expected to resolve or reverse with minimal intervention, the facility must determine and document what action or intervention is needed for the resident. (A) The determined action or intervention must be communicated to staff on each shift. (B) The documentation of staff instructions or interventions must be resident specific and made part of the resident record with weekly progress noted until the condition resolves. (2) MONITORING.

Alert charting dated 05/10/26 noted, “Nurse to monitor until resolved”; however, there was no further documented monitoring of the wound after 05/10/26. In interview on 06/09/26 at 1:30 pm, Staff 13 (Med Aide) confirmed the discoloration was still present; however, there was no documented evidence of monitoring.

Such services may be of a temporary nature as defined in facility policy, admission agreements and disclosure information. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure an RN assessment was completed for 1 of 1 sampled resident (#1) who experienced a significant change of condition. Findings include, but are not limited to: Resident 1 moved into the facility in 05/2024 with diagnoses including dementia with mood disturbance. During the survey, Resident 1 was observed eating independently, with some verbal cues from staff, and consumed approximately 50% of meals. The resident’s 03/08/26 through 06/08/26 clinical record and 01/10/26 through 06/08/26 weight records were reviewed, and staff were interviewed. b. The following weights were recorded by the facility: * 01/10/26: 130.5 pounds; * 02/10/26: 135.5 pounds; * 03/15/26: 116.0 pounds; (loss of 19.5 pounds in 33 days); * 04/10/26: 118.5 pounds; * 05/10/26: 118.5 pounds; and * 06/10/26: 119.0 pounds. Resident 1 experienced an unexplained 19.5 pound weight loss, or 14.3 % of his/her total body weight, in one month (from 02/10/26 to 03/15/26). The weight loss constituted a significant change of condition that required an RN assessment. There was no documented evidence the facility RN conducted an assessment until 04/10/26, 21 days after the weight loss was documented. Resident 1 was weighed during the survey, had regained 3 pounds of the 19.5 loss, and weighed 119 pounds on 06/10/26. The need to ensure significant changes of condition were assessed timely by the facility RN was discussed with Staff 2 (Regional Quality Assurance Manager/RN) and Staff 4 (Chief Operating Officer) on 06/10/26 at 2:00 pm. They acknowledged the findings.

A review has been conducted of current weight variances to assure assessments have been completed. 2. Training has been provided to the new Wellness Director, ALD/MCD and Nurse of the community weight monitoring policy, timeliness of weight assessments and required weekly f/u per rules to assure understanding. ALD/MCD will assure monthly weights are completed and RN assessments are conducted in a timely manner in accordance with community policy. 3. Monthly 4.

Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 2 was admitted to the MCC in 05/2026 with diagnoses including Lewy body dementia and Parkinson’s disease. During the acuity interview on 06/08/26, Resident 2 was identified as using a side rail.
